00:00 It means we better be on our stuff because he's gonna come here to try to embarrass us.
00:04 That's what it means.
00:05 And so that's our motivation.
00:07 That's my motivation.
00:08 And it's about winning, man.
00:10 All we gotta do is find a way to win.
00:12 And we're gonna have to be at our best.
00:14 And we will be at our best.
00:16 There was an interview earlier this season after they had had the game in Miami.
00:20 And you had some comments, very prophetic, that they were gonna get it right.
00:25 They would be playing their best ball when they were coming in here.
00:27 Very much that looks to be the case.
00:30 Just from your experiences with Sean, why were you able to say that so confidently?
00:34 And I guess, what have you learned from working with him about digging out of a hole, I guess?
00:41 You don't do this.
00:43 You just do this.
00:44 You just keep putting in the work.
00:48 You don't overreact to what it may appear to be.
00:53 Man, you just go by the facts.
00:55 You look at what is the issue, what is the problem.
00:59 Is it turnovers?
01:00 Is it the fundamentals?
01:01 Is it your first step?
01:02 Are we not getting the call fast enough?
01:04 And when you go back and look at anything that has hurt us, it's our own issues.
01:10 And it's the little things that come from day one.
01:12 And honestly, the teams that are winning and consistently win are the ones that do the
01:17 little, little things right.
01:19 The fundamentals, they take care of the football, they get takeaways.
01:23 And those are the most consistent teams.
01:26 And so all we got to do is get back to that, man, playing clean football.
01:30 And it really is as simple as that.
01:32 It doesn't mean it's easy, but it is that simple.
01:35 And it's all in our hands.
01:37 It's all in our control.
01:38 And that's the great thing about it.
